Just fit S4 345mm discs and callipers. Noticeable difference in braking performance.

I'm sure it's only the caliper carriers that is different for the bigger discs and of course the discs as I think the calipers are same. I could be wrong though lol

I have a 2001 Avant 2.5Q sport. What size brakes should be on there? They're ****** wooden feeling, I know that much... Might need a deglaze, but I doubt it's that...

Anyone recommend any decent pads?
